I guess NOT!!
I had these useless dark brown ear rings that did not show at all against my dark brown/black hair. So they just sat there, moved from one jewelery box to another, doing nothing...
Then I happened to buy this really fabulous jade green nail paint, and once I had put on my toes, I wanted to paint everything with it. Guess what? The ear rings wasn't a bad idea at all, not at all.
